GAP Series Shot Blasting For Structural Steel
Product Description
GAP Series Shot Blasting For Structural Steel is a continuous shot-blasting system for supported structural steel profiles, plates, and welded fabrications. The GAP series is a continuous shot-blasting system for supported plates, profiles, and welded fabrications.
GAP Series Shot Blasting For Structural Steel Overview
Shot-blasting systems are evaluated for material range, surface condition, required finish, throughput, abrasive recovery, dust collection, and line integration. Available configurations and capacities vary by model and project. Confirm the final specification against your material, part geometry, production target, utilities, safety requirements, and installation conditions.
Product Details
GAP series shotblasting machines are designed for continuous blasting of plates, profiles and welded constructions. Special attention has been paid to the positioning of turbines that provide the optimum efficiency and uniform cleaning of work pieces. Plates or profiles are loaded onto an input roller conveyor that transports work pieces through the tunnel part of the machine. On the outer brim of the tunnel’s shotblasting part, there are turbines that provide optimum cleaning of work pieces from the top and bottom side. Work pieces go on through the chamber to remove the shotblasting agent off the top surface, finally reaching the output roller conveyor.
What to Confirm Before Requesting a Quote
- Profile and plate dimensions.
- Material condition and contamination.
- Required surface-preparation standard.
- Target throughput.
- Abrasive and dust-collection requirements.
- Infeed, outfeed, electrical, and floor-space requirements.
Workflow and Integration Considerations
Coordinate loading, blasting, abrasive recovery, dust collection, inspection, coating, and downstream fabrication. Final machine selection should be confirmed against current drawings, capacity tables, application tests, utilities, safety requirements, installation conditions, training needs, and service availability.

GAP series shotblasting machines are designed for shotblasting plates of all standard widths and lengths, and they are also suited for blasting standard profiles of any dimension
Special machine variants also allow the shotblasting of welded constructions
GAP series machines provide continuous regulation of operating speed and, if required, also the regulation of steel shot flow
Shotblasting is turned on automatically, when work pieces travel under turbines
All machines are equipped by standards with a blow-off fan for removing steel shot from the top surface of work pieces, whereas in larger surface areas greater effect is achieved by using a rotation brush
There is a selection of machines available with different sizes of workspace and with numerous optional accessories which allow us to adjust our machines to the needs of even the most demanding customer.
Due to quality and robust production, our machines are designed to operate in the most demanding environments, such as rolling mills, shipyards, etc.
Shotblasting machines of GAP series may be upgraded into an automatic line for the application of primer paint; such line consists of:
- Hydraulic loading device
- Input roller conveyor
- Pre-drying chamber
- Shotblasting machine
- Automatic painting chamber
- Drying chamber
- Paint drying conveyor
- Output roller conveyor
- Hydraulic unloading device
- It is possible to select an individual assembly considering the needs of an individual customer,
With the pre-drying chamber, moist layers on plate or profiles are dried, thus providing the subsequent procedure of shotblasting and primer painting.
From the painting chamber, the coated work piece goes on to the drying chamber, where it is dried to the point where it can be used for further technological treatment immediately after unloading.
In the final drying process, we can also use the already used thermal energy from the pre-drying chamber, thus reducing energy costs.
In addition to the standard machines, we also offer other previously developed machines of various dimensions, and machines with adjustments made according to the wishes of the customer, whereby it is possible to set:
- The size of workspace
- The operating speed with a modification of the number and power of turbines
- The length and height of input and output roller conveyor
- The load capacity and distance between rollers on the input and output roller conveyor
- To equip the machine with a hydraulic loading and unloading device along with the input and output roller conveyor
- The adjustment of the machine for shotblasting welded constructions
- To equip turbines with a frequency regulator
